It was the second coldest game in Cowboys’ history. It was the sixth loss of the 2013 season. It was the second time this season the Cowboys defense (for lack of a better term) failed to force a punt. It was just ten yards shy of being the fifth time this season the Dallas D […]

Sunday, Denver Broncos kicker Matt Prater, aided by the thin air of the Mile High City, broke one of the coolest and most hallowed NFL records, when he booted a 64-yard field goal. Count me among the few old heads who hated to see the record fall. The prior record was set by the venerable […]

The Cowboys are 7-5. Two whole games over .500. For a team that has not finished above .500 in four seasons, that is kind of a big deal. With four games to go, the Cowboys can either make a move towards winning that elusive NFC East title and making the playoffs, or they can slide […]

When I was a kid, there were three things I knew I could count on: God and His Son, Jesus Christ; my mom and dad; and Tom Landry. Tom Landry was the rock-jawed, suit-clad, fedora-topped figure patrolling the sidelines of Texas stadium, giving guidance and stability to America’s Team, my beloved Dallas Cowboys. He had […]

Before the Cowboys-Giants game on Sunday, Jason Pierre-Paul—another sports dude with a hyphenated last name, which is just weird, since that is a designation historically used by married women who wanted to hang onto their old identity and incorporate it into the new—promised a Cowboys whooping and a blood-letting, according to Dan Graziano of ESPN.com: […]

The most over-asked question in Cowboys’ history (if not NFL history or maybe even human history): “Does Jerry Jones the owner ever think about firing Jerry Jones the GM?” The answer, if you cut through the verbal weaving and swerving Jones the owner does when asked a simple question is quite simply, “Hell, no!” Seventeen […]

I was flabbergasted this morning while listening to my favorite sports (and guy) talk radio station, KTCK 1310, the Ticket. The Musers (easily the best show on the Ticket) were discussing this year’s Cowboys’ offense, which has taken a decidedly conservative turn. Co-host Junior Miller actually called for more Romo interceptions. Well, he didn’t demand […]

The Dallas Cowboys have been the definition of an average football team under head coach Jason Garrett. After 49 games at the helm, the equivalent of three full seasons plus one game, his record is 26-23 (a .531 winning average.) He took over in the middle of the 2010 season and lead the Cowboys, who […]

No NFL team drafted Waxahachie native and North Texas alum Brian Waters. The Dallas Cowboys signed him as an undrafted free agent in 1999. He was slotted to play the fullback position, but was released during training camp. The Kansas City Chiefs picked up Waters and moved him to the offensive line, where he became […]

In terms of talent, Dez Bryant is among the best wide receivers in the NFL. In terms of being a good, solid team player, a man, he is not worthy of mention in the same sentence as Calvin Johnson. The proof of such was on display Sunday. No doubt, Bryant felt pressure to perform Sunday, […]
